So, as it seems neck traction can help some people who have CCI issues. Because I do not have the equipment to do it myself, I tried the opposite, i.e. pushing down the head towards the spine. Logically, by doing this, if someone suffers from vertical CCI it should make symptoms worse.
What I did was, gradually build up to 10 kg resting on the top of my head for 90 seconds. Surprisingly, 10 kg @ 90 seconds seemed to make my symptoms worse. My dizziness became worse and I became more fatigued. However I am not sure if this was placebo. That's why I need to try it a few times more.
Has anyone else tried this?
Disclaimer: I do not recommend anyone to do this, as there is risk involved. If you do decide to do it, do it very gradually. Start with a light weight for a short duration and increase weight / duration in very small increments.
